Patent EP-0166148-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ROY ROLAND WILFRED
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1985-05-10
Abstract: What is disclosed is a memory assignment method used with a disk file management system operating with a hard disk memory wherein data is stored in appropriate ones of a number of discrete files on the disk, and each file has an assigned amount of memory space exclusively associated therewith for the storage of data that should be in the file. The disk file management system keeps track of how much of the memory dedicated to the exclusive use of each file on the disk is yet available for the storage of data in each file, and also keeps track of how much of the memory on the disk is yet available for storage but has not yet been assigned to the exclusive use of any particular file. When the system determines that the amount of not yet used memory dedicated to the exclusive use by a file for the storage of data has reached a predetermined low level the system automatically takes a predetermined amount of memory not yet assigned to the exclusive use of any file and transfers it to the exclusive use of the file with the low level of not yed used memory.

Abstract: Digitaler Multiplizierer mit in mehreren Zeilen angeordneten Zellen (Z11 bis Z44), wobei die Zeilen unterschiedlichen Gruppen von Partialproduktbits zugeordnet sind. Es sind Summenpfade (5) und Übertragspfade (7) vorgesehen, die die einzelnen Zellen miteinander verbinden und an ihren Enden Signale abgeben, aus denen die Produktbits gebildet werden. Die Multiplikandenbits werden zusammen mit den in einer Zeile gebildeten Summen- und Übertragssignalen zwischengespeichert und nach einem Pipelining-Verfahren gleichzeitig an die jeweils nächste Zeile weitergegeben. Angestrebt wird hierbei eine möglichst unverzögerte Einspeisung eines Multiplikatorbits in sämtliche Zellen (Z31 bis Z34) einer Zeile, um eine kurze Stufenlaufzeit der Signale zwischen den Ausgängen zweier aufeinanderfolgender Zeilen zu erzielen. Erreicht wird das dadurch, daß jedes Verknüpfungsglied, das zur Bildung eines Partialproduktbits dient, in einer Zelle (Z23) enthalten ist, die der Zeile (Z31 bis Z34), in der dieses Partialproduktbit zu Summensignalen und Übertragssignalen addiert werden soll, vorgeordnet ist. In einer der Zellen (Z33) der letzteren Zeile befindet sich ein Volladdierer, der über eine mit einer Schieberegisterstufe (59) versehene Verbindungsleitung (58) an den Ausgang des Verknüpfungsgliedes geschaltet ist. Der Anwendungsbereich umfaßt integrierte Schaltungen zur digitalen Datenverarbeitung.

Abstract: Method and apparatus is disclosed for selectively disallowing and allowing the connection of a call originated by a calling customer (l0l) through a toll telecommunications network (l05, l06, l07) when the billing number involved with the call has a predetermined billing status such as delinquent payment. The toll network includes a toll office (l05) for switching calls between local telephone networks. The toll network also includes a data base (l08) having a list of delinquent payment billing numbers. In response to a call originated by a calling customer, the toll office sends the billing number involved with the call received from the local network (l03) to the data base. When the billing number involved with the call is in a list of billing numbers having a delinquent payment status, a "deny call" reply message is returned to the toll office to disallow the connection of the call through the toll network. The toll office also announces to the calling customer the disallowance of the call to discourage further attempts through the network. The toll office may include or utilize a remotely located operator system to process calls by offering calling customers alternate billing arrangements when the call is disallowed. A "call allow" reply message from the data base is returned to the operator system to process an operator assisted call.
